While the Sensitivity Cycle equally acknowledges four areas, Insight is one where I find myself often starting with clients. Insight is about making space for clarity, and serves as the necessary information-gathering phase in the cycle.

The Sensitivity Cycle should be required learning for any human trying to understand themselves, and the world around them, more fully. Developed by Ron Kurtz, the Sensitivity Cycle is an aspect of the Hakomi Method that explores how a person’s experiences are perceived, processed and carried out.

Earlier this year I got to sit face-to-face with an angry client telling me that what I practice “is pseudoscience at best.” Not a fun conversation.
